I try to post my favorite icons, i actually make much more then is actually here, but i just like these the most. I usually also post a little "story" with them. It can be strange sometimes, but usually its what i think about when i look at the icon or what i had in mind when i was making it ^^

Oh - and thanks for the fav on Haiku Theory Part 1 too. Do you write any haiku?? Or just an interested reader.

I do write for myself mainly, nothing too grand :) although i never could bring myself to sit down and do some actual reading on the topic, so i was glad to see something about haiku when i was going trough the DDs of the day.

I finished reading your Haiku Theory part 1 (hoping for part 2 soon ) and i enjoyed it greatly, for it pointed out somethings to me that i was previously not aware of. Also the first haiku that is used in the essay,

"summer grasses–
all that remains
of soldiers' dreams "

gave me a bit different picture then the one described later on in the essay, so it was very interesting to read another interpretation of it.

To me the summer grass meant peace and victory meaning that the soldiers, even thought they are not returning home, have accomplished something and their dreams did come true. Although its not all about their manifested dreams but also about the soldiers' death itself, if that makes any sense at all. Bittersweet.

Its amazing what 3 lines and a few words can tell, even though they say a picture can say a 1000 words, i think i prefer those words or even less. Anyway before i get of track, thanx for sharing your haiku s and your knowledge with us ^^

Interesting - thanks so much for the detailed comment. I do think that the other reading you have supplied is possible in the Basho poem, but given he was a Buddhist pacifist, I don't think he would have seen war as leading to peace. But that is not to say your reading is wrong - no readings are wrong. I think very similarly to Basho, in the sense that if one attains peace by killing and war, then how can this peace be expected to last?? Surely the next person to have a problem with something will turn to war (as they have seen it work before - and it is the example set). For me peace must be achieved without war, or else war will be the solution for other things - it will be seen as a means to an end (peace). But peace in-itself cannot be achieved through war, because peace would not have war in it. Does that make sense?

It is amazing what 3 lines can produce. There is a Taoist quote that I thought was applicable here:

one
two
three
the ten thousand things

Thankyou so much for the great comment and the discussion. I am really pleased you enjoyed it.

:)
